The CCX896 is a coaxial, passive subcardioid loudspeaker that provides 7 dB of low frequency attenuation in the rear hemisphere while still providing the output capability of a normal 2-way system in a much more compact enclosure. Its coaxial transducer and 90° x 60° horn can be rotated in 45° increments, which allows its coverage to be tailored to best suit an application’s requirements. The enclosure’s vertically trapezoidal shape allows it to be installed very close to ceilings or beneath large arrays with minimal effect on sight lines. Fulcrum Acoustic’s TQ™ processing is an integral part of the CCX896 design. Sound, innovative acoustical design combined with state of the art digital processing leads to exceptional clarity and precise transient response, even at very high sound pressure levels. The required digital signal processing can be provided by one of many supported platforms. The CCX896 is particularly effective for fill systems where targeted pattern control is desirable. In addition, its 16 ohm nominal impedance makes it an excellent solution for high fidelity, foreground distributed systems where a high loudspeaker-to-amplifier ratio is desirable. Its unique shape and compact size complements many architectural styles, which facilitates acceptance by interior designers and architects. This makes it the perfect choice for houses of worship, theaters, restaurants, transportation facilities, theme parks, and more.
